in case anyone is interested, i didn't get any feedback on how to make
silo do what i wanted (and i'm guessing that it currently just can't
handle metadevices), but once root was mirrored the obp boot-device
variable seems to do the trick, regardless (once silo was run on the other
disk, as well)...
i received one yes vote and one no vote for whether swap can be mirrored,
but everything i found on the net at large points to no...
